We went ahead and took a spin with felt. Algernon was down with modeling which we were grateful for b/c... everybody loves Algernon. Some needles, some scissors, some thread and a bit a glue (for the hanging loop) and look what came about?

This "felty" measures 5" from beak to tail; 3.25" from top to bottom; 1.25" thick (we won't say fat). The hanging loop is 3" from bird to tip of the loop, which gives Al plenty of options to hang from different things: hooks, mirrors, Christmas trees, handles, and long noses.

This is just a start. We have an Etsy shop set up and we'll be putting this felty and the others up really soon, so make sure to check us there!
